The group worked with a famous typographer Stephen Banham to test and improve 9 (they) product.
The typeface uses principles of cognitive psychology to create an effect 10 (know) as desirable difficulty, the researchers note, ―which causes the brain to take part in deeper cognitive processing. The result is improved memory.
